Hello,

I just had the same issue as the one explained here: Jetson Orin Nano - Could not detect network error

After trying to re-flash the image to a nvme m2 disk I get this error:

May it be an issue with the MNVe SSD? I tried multiple times without success. I also tried to flash to an SD and it works.

Thank you for your help and assistance!

Based on the provided context, it appears that you are experiencing issues with flashing the Jetson Orin Nano image to an NVMe M.2 disk, resulting in a “Could not detect network error.” You have tried reflashing the image multiple times without success, but you were able to flash it to an SD card successfully.

To troubleshoot this issue, let’s consider the following possibilities:

  1. NVMe SSD compatibility: It’s possible that the NVMe SSD you are using is not compatible with the Jetson Orin Nano. Check the specifications of the SSD to ensure it meets the requirements for the Jetson Orin Nano. You can also try using a different NVMe SSD to rule out any issues with the specific SSD you are using.
  2. Flashing process: The flashing process may be failing due to an issue with the image or the flashing tool. Try using a different flashing tool or method, such as the SDK Manager or the flash.sh script, to see if the issue persists.
  3. Disk formatting: The NVMe SSD may not be properly formatted, which could be causing the flashing process to fail. Try formatting the SSD using a tool like mkfs.ext4 before attempting to flash the image again.
  4. Boot configuration: The boot configuration may be incorrect, which could be preventing the Jetson Orin Nano from booting from the NVMe SSD. Check the boot configuration to ensure it is set to boot from the NVMe SSD.

To further assist you, I would like to request more information about your setup and the error messages you are seeing. Please provide the following:

  • The exact error message you are seeing when trying to flash the image to the NVMe SSD
  • The output of the flash.sh script or the SDK Manager logs
  • The specifications of the NVMe SSD you are using
  • The boot configuration settings for the Jetson Orin Nano

By providing this information, I can better understand the issue and provide more specific guidance to help you resolve it.

In comparison to other issues reported in the context, it appears that you are experiencing a similar issue to the one reported in the topic “Jetson Orin Nano Flash Complete boot issue “ OTA work directory is not found on internal and external storage devices””. However, the root cause of the issue may be different, and further investigation is needed to determine the exact cause of the problem.

Hi,

How do you flash your device?

Do you use the sdk manager ?

Thanks

6

Hello David,

Yes, this has been performed using the SDK manager.

Thanks for the help!

7

Hi,

Do you have other NVMe to cross check the issue?

Thanks

8

This NVMe was flashed before using the SDK manager. But I can buy another one. Could you please provide me the right specifications for the NVMe?

Thanks for the help and assistance!

9

Hi,

Please try to format the NVMe to ext4 format first.

Thanks

10

Hello David, thanks for the help. Could you please provide me more info how to format the NVMe to ext4? Thank you!

Hi,

Before format to ex4, what is your target JP version?

Please try below steps:

  1. Navigate to the `Linux_for_Tegra`
  2. Run below commands
sudo ./tools/kernel_flash/l4t_initrd_flash.sh --external-device nvme0n1p1 -p "-c ./bootloader/generic/cfg/flash_t234_qspi.xml" -c ./tools/kernel_flash/flash_l4t_t234_nvme.xml --erase-all --showlogs --network usb0 jetson-orin-nano-devkit external
